Abstract

This study aims to identify the factors influencing people's utilization of vaccination services at the Sigli City Health Center. This research employed an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. Independent variables included age, occupation, education, knowledge, accessibility, family support, perception, and immunization history, while the dependent variable was the utilization of the Covid-19 vaccine service. The study was conducted in November, with a sample size of 371 respondents selected using random sampling techniques based on the Slovin formula. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to the respondents. The research findings revealed that approximately 78.71% of the population utilized the vaccine service, while 21.29% did not. Bivariate analysis indicated that out of the eight variables examined, five variables had a significant relationship with the utilization of the Covid-19 vaccine service, namely occupation, knowledge, accessibility, family support, and perception, each with a p-value of 0.000. Multivariate analysis further confirmed that knowledge was the most dominant factor, with a p-value of 0.000 and an Odds Ratio of 23.3 (95% CI = 63.5-85.9). Thus, a lack of knowledge was found to be a significant factor influencing the utilization of the Covid-19 vaccine service.

Abstract

Background: Injectable contraceptives are the most widely used family planning method in Indonesia, accounting for approximately 63.7% of all contraceptive users. However, the use of three-month injectable contraceptives is often associated with side effects such as dizziness, menstrual irregularities, bleeding, and weight gain, which may influence acceptors’ knowledge and attitudes. Objective: This study aimed to examine the association between knowledge and attitudes of contraceptive acceptors and the side effects of three-month injectable contraceptives at a private midwifery practice. Methods: This study employed an analytic cross-sectional design. The study was conducted over five days at Midwife Hj. Lindawati’s Practice in Kembang Tanjong District, with a total population of 144 acceptors. A sample of 59 respondents was selected using the Slovin formula. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using appropriate statistical tests to determine the association between variables. Results: The findings showed a statistically significant association between knowledge and the side effects of three-month injectable contraceptives (p = 0.002; p < 0.05). Similarly, a significant association was found between attitudes and the side effects of three-month injectable contraceptives (p = 0.002; p < 0.05). Conclusion: There is a significant association between knowledge and attitudes of contraceptive acceptors and the side effects of three-month injectable contraceptives. Improving knowledge and fostering positive attitudes among acceptors may help in managing and reducing the impact of these side effects.
